I'm eager to grow my book of business in various markets and connect with active wholesalers.

Southern Maine is a great market for long-term rentals, with strong demand in many areas.

The simplest way is to base it on the market temperature of whatever city you’re researching.

-why not pick a market closer to home? 

With that said Phoenix had one of the highest home price declines in the last market down turn.  

The benefit to buying cash and refinancing later is that you can close on a property quickly, which works in your favor in competitive markets.

Study the market.

AirDNA – This is my go-to for market research.

@Jim LynchSome typical minimum tenant screening requirements look like the following, but it depends on your market:-Renter has a gross monthly income of 3x more than the monthly rent-Minimum credit score of 650-Renter must have no prior evictions-No felons (or other notable criminal history)There are a number of different tenant screening softwares out there such as Zillow Rental Manager, TransUnion SmartMove, etc.Be sure to complete an employment verification by contacting the renter's employer and confirm the details they shared with you, landlord verification (if they have a previous landlord), credit check, and background check.
